How could Noah possibly fit every species—dinosaurs included—onto one boat, and still explain how their descendants spread to every continent on Earth? In this episode of Faith and Science, we tackle the questions skeptics love to raise about the Genesis flood account, walking through the ark's dimensions, the difference between "kinds" and species, and the post-Babel migration that repopulated the globe. Along the way we dig into real creation science evidence, from naval engineering principles behind the ark's design to genetic diversity within created kinds, building a strong case for evidence for God rooted in a consistent biblical worldview.

Dr. John Ashton, author of The Big Argument: Does God Exist?, joins the program to address the popular evolutionary claim that the Noah's Ark account is scientifically and logistically impossible. Drawing on research from geologist Andrew Snelling, he examines the science of "kinds" versus species, the naval engineering behind the ark's dimensions, and how a single post-flood Ice Age could have created the land bridges that explain worldwide animal migration and unique regional wildlife like Australia's marsupials. The evidence points to a supernatural, divinely orchestrated event—one that lines up with global flood legends, ancient chronologies, and the sudden diversification of language at Babel, offering compelling support for intelligent design over naturalistic explanations.

In this episode, you will hear:
• Why the ark's true dimensions match modern naval engineering for a stable, ocean-going vessel—not the cartoon "bathtub" most people picture
• How the biblical distinction between "kinds" and species drastically reduces the actual number of animals needed on board
• The Ice Age theory that explains how land bridges formed after the flood, allowing animals and people to migrate and populate every continent
• Fascinating clues—from mitochondrial DNA to global flood legends and the shared origins of language—that independently corroborate the Genesis account

What if the "millions of years" argument against the Bible is built on a foundation of unproven assumptions? In this episode of Faith and Science, we dig into radiometric dating — the go-to argument for an old Earth — and uncover surprising creation science evidence that challenges the standard timeline. From conflicting isotope results to a rapidly decaying magnetic field, this conversation offers compelling evidence for God and a fresh look at how science can align with a biblical worldview.

Joining host Kaysie Vokurka is Dr. John Ashton, co-author of The Big Argument: Does God Exist?, drawing on insights from chapter 9 by geologist Andrew Snelling. For decades, radiometric dating has been presented as airtight proof that the Earth is billions of years old, discrediting the biblical timeline. Dr. Ashton walks through the hidden assumptions behind these methods — unknown starting concentrations, contaminated samples, and evidence of accelerated decay — and contrasts them with carbon-14 findings in coal and diamonds that shouldn't exist if long ages were true. The result is a compelling case that the data doesn't point to deep time at all, but to a young Earth and a global flood consistent with the biblical record.

In this episode, you will hear:

Why different radiometric dating methods often give conflicting ages for the very same rock
How carbon-14 found in "million-year-old" coal seams defies conventional dating assumptions
The startling evidence for accelerated radioactive decay during Earth's catastrophic past
How the decline of Earth's magnetic field points to an Earth no older than about 10,000 years

Could fossil graveyards stretching across entire continents be the fingerprint of a single, global catastrophe? This episode dives deep into the biblical flood evidence hidden in Earth's rock layers, and why it may be stronger than mainstream geology admits.

Host Kaysie Vokurka sits down with Dr. John Ashton, author of The Big Argument: Does God Exist?, to unpack chapter 9 (contributed by geologist Andrew Snelling). The conversation opens with a core conflict: does the geologic column reflect slow, gradual uniformitarian deposition over millions of years, or rapid, catastrophic burial? Using evidence from the Morrison Formation, the Tapeats Formation, marine fossils found in the Himalayas and Peru's mountains, and cross-bedding water-speed calculations, Dr. Ashton builds the case that the fossil record points to one massive, worldwide flood event rather than isolated local catastrophes separated by eons.

In this episode, you will hear:
• Why mixed marine, freshwater, and terrestrial fossils found together point to a single catastrophic "stew" event
• How rock layers bent at 90 degrees without cracking prove they were deposited in rapid succession, not over eons
• The erosion problem: why millions of years between layers should leave obvious gaps — and don't
• How whale fossils in mountain ranges and consistent global water-flow directions align with the Genesis flood account

Are you fascinated by the intricate details of ancient life? Discover compelling creation science evidence as we uncover the secrets of the Cambrian explosion. This episode is a deep dive into Christian apologetics that challenges the standard narrative of primitive evolutionary beginnings.

In this conversation, Dr. John Ashton discusses the complex optical systems of trilobites, highlighting the conflict between gradual evolutionary theories and the sudden appearance of fully formed, complex creatures. By exploring these ancient fossils, the setup reveals how advanced design elements point toward a sudden creation rather than a slow, unguided process. The resolution shows that trilobite vision provides profound evidence for an intelligent creator.

In this episode, you will hear:

• Trilobites possessed advanced compound eyes with built-in optical correction and depth perception.

• These complex creatures appear right at the bottom of the fossil record alongside advanced nautiloids.

• There is a profound absence of evolutionary forebears in the older rock layers.

• The highly sensitive 360-degree vision of trilobites points to deliberate, intelligent design rather than random mutation.

Have you ever been told that your tailbone or appendix are useless evolutionary leftovers? Grounded in a solid biblical worldview, this episode unpacks the truth behind human anatomy. Join us as we explore powerful evidence for God by debunking the myth of useless body parts.

Dr. John Ashton addresses the conflict between the evolutionary claim that vestigial organs are functionless and modern medical discoveries. The setup examines how assuming organs are "leftovers" actually hinders scientific and medical advancement, historically leading to unnecessary surgeries. Ultimately, the resolution demonstrates that physiological changes and lost functions actually point to biological devolution and a perfectly designed original creation.

In this episode, you will hear:

• The human appendix has a critical function in regulating gut bacteria, and the coccyx serves as an essential muscle anchor.

• Labeling organs as "useless" has historically slowed medical progress and led to the premature removal of tonsils and appendices.

• Finding purpose in biology aligns with scientific discovery much better than assuming random, unguided mutations.

• Genetic data indicates a loss of information over time, supporting devolution rather than evolutionary advancement.

Did you know that some of the most famous biology textbook illustrations are completely fake? We are exposing the truth with undeniable creation science evidence that will change how you view education. This episode dives into Christian apologetics, examining why fraudulent examples are still used to teach human origins.

Dr. John Ashton breaks down the historical conflict surrounding Haeckel’s embryos and the peppered moth. The setup reveals how these "icons of evolution" were either staged with glued moths or deliberately drawn inaccurately to support Darwin's phylogenetic tree. The resolution challenges the scientific community to follow actual evidence rather than holding onto disproven, wishful thinking.

In this episode, you will hear:

• Haeckel’s embryonic drawings were exposed as a fraud in the 1800s, yet they inexplicably remain in modern biology textbooks.

• The folds in human embryos are not fish gills; they naturally develop into the thymus gland and inner ear canal.

• The famous peppered moth photographs were staged by physically gluing dead moths to tree trunks.

• Many experts admit that natural selection fails to explain how entirely new genetic information is actually generated.

Are adaptations proof of evolution, or do they point to a perfectly designed origin? Delve into a solid biblical worldview as we explore what genetic data actually reveals about life. This is crucial evidence for God, showing that natural selection operates much differently than we are often taught.

Dr. John Ashton explains the conflict between the "survival of the fittest" concept and the biochemical reality of genetic mutations. The setup details how adaptation mechanisms, like E. coli digesting citrate, rely on turning on dormant, pre-existing genes rather than creating new ones. Ultimately, the resolution shows that natural selection is a process of sorting and losing genetic information, not a builder of new biological complexity.

In this episode, you will hear:

• Natural selection can only filter existing traits; it lacks the capability to write new genetic code.

• Most random mutations either destroy information or negatively impact the organism's efficiency.

• Famous laboratory experiments with E. coli demonstrated the activation of existing genes, not the spontaneous creation of new genetic data.

• The observable loss of genetic diversity perfectly matches the concept of biological decay following a perfect initial creation.

We revisit the classic "miller urey experiment" from the 1950s, which initially offered hope for understanding the "origin of life on earth" by creating amino acids. Despite this early success, the challenge of explaining "chemical evolution" from random chemicals to the specific information in DNA remains a significant hurdle in the study of "abiogenesis". Join us as we consider what it truly takes for "life on earth" to begin.

Could the intricate network of peptides, enzymes, and biopolymers really form by chance? In this episode of Faith & Science, we examine the limits of the Miller-Urey experiment and the "missing editor" of our genetic code. Discover why the precise disequilibrium of cellular chemistry points to an astonishingly complex design rather than random chemical processes.
